Either an Indian batsman will break the 200 tonight or India will go past 443. I can feel it tbh.
I thought you first wrote "go past 400", but I see you made it a bit tougher. Still, good predictions.

It's hard to critisize a guy for scoring 89 at a S/R of 80 when he saw off the new ball and allowed his team to score 413, but congratulations, you just did it.

Lol! Best post.

People bagging Ganguly don't realise how much the ball was swinging. Bermudan bowlers or not, the first 6-8 overs weren't easy.

IMO Tendulkar choked as usual. He clearly should have broken Afridi's record for the fastest ODI century. He is never there when his team needs him. His S/R was 196. Why not 250?

I totally agree. Tendulkar was selfish and only batted for himself, drop him immediatley I say.

By the way, the old Indian uniforms were quite dire. These look a lot better. Still has nothing on NZ, mind you, but not as bad anymore. Now they just need to make the blue darker.

Well we look to be on track to beat SL's margin of victory, couple that with our RR, it looks to be a pretty successful day. Of course, we still have to win against SL. And that assumes SL will beat Bangladesh (likely but not a given).

Wow, congratulations. You predicted a win over......Bermuda. But you also predicted a win over Bangladesh and every other game that we've ever played. So whenever we win, you automatically can say you predicted it. :p

I, on the other hand, do exactly the same thing but in the opposite direction (though to be fair, I did say we would win).

That was a drop. Bad bad sportsmanship from the fielder there. You can't claim that catch...you shouldn't do that. Can't they refer this to the third umpire? This is just a minnow, why resort to something like this?

Because their world cup hopes could depend on it?

There is a fine line between sportsmanship and foolishness. I am not saying you are wrong, but there is clearly grey area here in this particular situation whether you leave the call to the umpires.

The counter arguer would say are the few runs more important to Bermuda in a game they are surely going to lose, or India who need the run rate to advance? Or do you make the 'right' (wrong?) decision, no matter what.
